A cellulolytic, acetic acid producing anaerobic bacterial isolate, Gram negative, rod-shaped, motile, terminal oval shaped endospore forming bacterium identified as Clostridium lentocellum SG6 based on physiological and biochemical characteristics. It produced acetic acid as a major end product from cellulose fermentation at 37°C and pH 7.2. Acetic acid production was 0.67 g/g cellulose substrate utilized in cellulose mineral salt (CMS) medium. Yeast extract (0.4%) was the best nitrogen source among the various nitrogenous nutrients tested in production medium containing 0.8% cellulose as substrate. No additional vitamins or trace elemental solution were required for acetic acid fermentation. This is the highest acetic acid fermentation yield in monoculture fermentation for direct conversion of cellulose to acetic acid.  相似文献

Clostridium lentocellum SG6 fermented various pure crystalline cellulosic materials efficiently with maximum acetic acid yield (gram acetic acid/gram substrate) of 0.67, at low substrate (8 g l−1) concentration. The strain grew poorly on crude biopolymers but fermented them easily after alkali treatment, when grown with 8 g substrate l−1 concentration of alkali-extracted cotton straw (AECS), paddy straw (AEPS) and sorghum stover (AESS) etc. The acetic acid to substrate (A/S) ratios were similar to those obtained with pure cellulosic materials. An increase in substrate concentration led to a decreased A/S ratio and a decreased percentage of substrate degraded. At high substrate concentration of 75 g filter paper l−1, the strain SG6 converted 63.2 g filter paper into 31.28 g acetic acid l−1. At 100 g l−1 concentrations, AECS and AEPS served as the best substrates for acetic acid production when compared with other biopolymers. A maximum amount of 30.98 and 30.86 g acetic acid was produced from 70.6 g AEPS and 70.1 g AESS l−1 of medium by strain SG6, respectively. Acetic acid production of 0.67 g g−1 pure cellulose (Whatman No. 1 filter paper), 0.63 g g−1 of alkali-treated cotton straw (AECS) are the highest among the cellulolytic bacteria reported so far in mono culture fermentations with pure and native cellulosic materials. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Ralstonia eutropha grows on and produces polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) from fermentation acids. Acetic acid, one major organic acid from acidogenesis of organic wastes, has an inhibitory effect on the bacterium at slightly alkaline pH (6 g HAc/L at pH 8). The tolerance of R. eutropha to acetate, however, was increased significantly up to 15 g/L at the slightly alkaline pH level with high cell mass concentration. A metabolic cell model with five fluxes is proposed to depict the detoxification mechanism including mass transfer and acetyl-CoA formation of acetic acid and the formation of three final metabolic products, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), active biomass, and CO(2). The fluxes were measured under different conditions such as cell mass concentration, acetic acid concentration, and medium composition. The experimental results indicate that the acetate detoxification by high cell mass concentration is attributed to the increased fluxes at high extracellular acetate concentrations. The fluxes could be doubled to reduce and hence detoxify the accumulated intracellular acetate anions.  相似文献

AIMS: Analysis of regulators for modulated gluconic acid production under surface fermentation (SF) condition using grape must as the cheap carbohydrate source, by mutant Aspergillus niger ORS-4.410. Replacement of conventional fermentation condition by solid-state surface fermentation (SSF) for semi-continuous production of gluconic acid by pseudo-immobilization of A. niger ORS-4.410. METHODS AND RESULTS: Grape must after rectification was utilized for gluconic acid production in batch fermentation in SF and SSF processes using mutant strain of A. niger ORS-4.410. Use of rectified grape must led to the improved levels of gluconic acid production (80-85 g l(-1)) in the fermentation medium containing 0.075% (NH4)2HPO4; 0.1% KH2PO4 and 0.015% MgSO4.7H2O at an initial pH 6.6 (+/-0.1) under surface fermentation. Gluconic acid production was modulated by incorporating the 2% soybean oil, 2% starch and 1% H2O2 in fermentation medium at continuously high aeration rate (2.0 l min(-1)). Interestingly, 95.8% yield of gluconic acid was obtained when A. niger ORS-4.410 was pseudo-immobilized on cellulose fibres (bagasse) under SSF. Four consecutive fermentation cycles were achieved with a conversion rate of 0.752-0.804 g g(-1) of substrate into gluconic acid under SSF. CONCLUSIONS: Use of additives modulated the gluconic acid production under SF condition. Semi-continuous production of gluconic acid was achieved with pseudo-immobilized mycelia of A. niger ORS-4.410 having a promising yield (95.8%) under SSF condition. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The bioconversion of grape must into modulated gluconic acid production under SSF conditions can further be employed in fermentation industries by replacing the conventional carbohydrate sources and expensive, energy consuming fermentation processes.  相似文献

AIMS: To characterize cellulolytic, hydrogen-producing clostridia on a comparable basis. METHODS AND RESULTS: H(2) production from cellulose by six mesophilic clostridia was characterized in standardized batch experiments using MN301 cellulose, Avicel and cellobiose. Daily H(2) production, substrate degradation, biomass production and the end-point distribution of soluble fermentation products varied with species and substrates. All species produced a significant amount of H(2) from cellobiose, with Clostridium acetobutylicum achieving the highest H(2) yield of 2.3 mol H(2) mol(-1) hexose, but it did not degrade cellulose. Clostridium cellulolyticum and Clostridium populeti catalysed the highest H(2) production from cellulose, with yields of 1.7 and 1.6 mol H(2 )mol(-1) hexose from MN301 and 1.6 and 1.4 mol H(2) mol(-1) hexose from Avicel, respectively. These species also achieved 25-100% higher H(2) production rates from cellulose than the other species. CONCLUSIONS: These cellulolytic, hydrogen-producing clostridia varied in H(2) production, with Cl. cellulolyticum and Cl. populeti achieving the highest H(2) yields and cellulose degradation. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The fermentation of cellulosic materials presents a means of H(2) production from renewable resources. This standardized comparison provides a quantitative baseline for improving H(2) production from cellulose through medium and process optimization and metabolic engineering.  相似文献

Clostridium formicoaceticum homofermentatively converts lactate to acetate at 37 degrees C and pH 6.6-9.6. However, this fermentation is strongly inhibited by acetic acid at acidic pH. The specific growth rate of this organism decreased from a maximum at pH 7.6 to zero at pH 6.6. This inhibition effect was found to be attributed to both H(+) and undissociated acetic acid. At pH values below 7.6, the H(+) inhibited the fermentation following non-competitive inhibition kinetics. The acetic acid inhibition was found to be stronger at a lower medium pH. At pH 6.45-6.8, cell growth was found to be primarily limited by a maximum undissociated acetic acid concentration of 0.358 g/L (6mM). This indicates that the undissociated acid, not the dissociated acid, is the major acid inhibitor. At pH 7.6 or higher, this organism could tolerate acetate concentrations of higher than 0.8M, but salt (Na(+)) became a strong inhibitor at concentrations of higher than 0.4M. Acetic acid inhibition also can be represented by noncompetitive inhibition kinetics. A mathematical model for this homoacetic fermentation was also developed. This model can be used to simulate batch fermentation at any pH between 6.9 and 7.6.  相似文献

Summary Controlled aeration ofLeuconostoc mesenteroides was studied as a possible mechanism for control of the formation of acetic acid a metabolite of major influence on the taste of lactic fermented foods. Fermentations were carried out in small scale in a medium in which growth was limited by the buffer capacity only. Ethanol and acetic acid formed during the fermentation were analyzed by rapid head space gas chromatography, and the ratio of the molar concentrations of these two volatiles quantitatively predicted the balance between the formation of acetic acid and lactic acid. The oxygen concentration during the fermentations decreased rapidly to zero, meaning that oxygen transfer was limited by the volumetric oxygen transfer rate,k 1 aC *. A linear correlation between k1aC* and the quantity of acetic acid produced was established, and it is suggested that such oxygenated heterolactic fermentation processes should be analyzed as fed-batch fermentations with oxygen as the limiting substrate. Addition of fructose in limited amounts leads to the formation of one half mole of acetic acid for each mole fructose, thus offering an alternative mechanism for controlling acetic acid formation.  相似文献

The fermentation of cellulose and cellobiose by Clostridium thermocellum monocultures and C. thermocellum/Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum cocultures was studied. All cultures were grown under anaerobic conditions in batch culture at 60 degrees C. When grown on cellulose, the coculture exhibited a shorter lag before initiation and growth and celluloysis than did the monoculture. Cellulase activity appeared earlier in the coculture than in the monoculture; however, after growth had ceased, cellulase activity was greater in the monoculture. Monocultures produced primarily ethanol, acetic acid, H2 and CO2. Cocultures produced more H2 and acetic acid and less ethanol than did the monoculture. In the coculture, conversion of H2 to methane was usually complete, and most of the methane produced was derived from CO2 reduction rather than from acetate conversion. Agents of fermentation stoppage were found to be low pH and high concentrations of ethanol in the monoculture and low pH in the coculture. Fermentation of cellobiose was more rapid than that of cellulose. In cellobiose medium, the methanogen caused only slight changes in the fermentation balance of the Clostridium, and free H2 was produced.  相似文献

The release of acetic acid due to deacetylation of the hemicellulose fraction during the treatment of lignocellulosic biomass contributes to the inhibitory character of the generated hydrolysates. In the present study, we identified a strain-independent adaptation protocol consisting of pre-cultivating the strain at pH 5.0 in the presence of at least 4 g L?1 acetic acid that enabled aerobic growth and improved fermentation performance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells at low pH (3.7) and in the presence of inhibitory levels of acetic acid (6 g L?1). During anaerobic cultivation with adapted cells of strain TMB3500, the specific ethanol production rate was increased, reducing the fermentation time to 48 %.  相似文献

琥珀酸是一种高附加值的有机酸,广泛用于食品、化工和农药领域。解脂酵母Yarrowia lipolytica作为新型强健的非传统酵母,近年来逐渐吸引了研究者的注意。前期通过基因敲除琥珀酸脱氢酶基因构建了一株产琥珀酸的重组解脂酵母PGC01003。由于糖酵解和TCA循环流量不协调,PGC01003分泌大量副产物乙酸,限制了琥珀酸产量的进一步提高。为降低乙酸的溢出,实现自然低pH值发酵生产琥珀酸,首先干扰旁路代谢,异源表达来自鼠沙门氏菌的乙酰辅酶A合酶,乙酸的产量下降至4.6 g/L,比对照降低了24.6%。而基因敲除乙酰辅酶A水解酶基因得到的重组菌PGC11505,发酵96 h乙酸分泌量只有0.4 g/L,琥珀酸产量提高到7.0 g/L,琥珀酸的转化率为0.30 g/g,为进一步构建高产琥珀酸的细胞工厂奠定基础。  相似文献

AIMS: Evaluation of the influence of fermentation components on extracellular acid amylase production by an isolated fungal strain Aspergillus awamori. METHODS AND RESULTS: Eight fungal metabolic influential factors, viz. soluble starch, corn steep liquor (CSL), casein, potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH(2)PO(4)) and magnesium sulfate (MgSO(4) x 7H(2)O), pH, temperature and inoculum level were selected to optimize amylase production by A. awamori using fractional factorial design of Taguchi methodology. Significant improvement in acid amylase enzyme production (48%) was achieved. The optimized medium composition consisted of soluble starch--3%; CSL--0.5%; KH(2)PO(4)--0.125%; MgSO(4) x 7H(2)O--0.125%; casein--1.5% at pH 4.0 and temperature at 31 degrees C. CONCLUSION: Optimization of the components of the fermentation medium was carried out using fractional factorial design of Taguchi's L-18 orthogonal array. Based on the influence of interaction components of fermentation, these could be classified as the least significant and the most significant at individual and interaction levels. Least significant factors of individual level have higher interaction severity index and vice versa at enzyme production in this fungal strain. The pH of the medium and substrate (soluble starch) showed maximum production impact (60%) at optimized environment. Temperature and CSL were the least influential factors for acid amylase production. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Acid amylase production by isolated A. awamori is influenced by the interaction of fermentation factors with fungal metabolism at individual and interaction levels. The pH of the fermentation medium and substrate concentration regulates maximum enzyme production process in this fungal strain.  相似文献

Summary The formation of acetic acid by the thermophilic nonsporeforming homoacetogenic bacterium Acetogenium kivui was studied under various conditions. In pH-controlled batch fermentation at pH 6.4 this bacterium was able to produce up to 625 mM of acetic acid from glucose within 50–60 h. The value of max obtained was about 0.17 h-1, the yield was about 2.55 mol of acetic acid per mol of glucose utilized. In continuous fermentation both substrate concentration and dilution rate (D) influenced the yield of acetate and the stationary concentration: a glucose concentration of 67 mM at D=0.09 h-1 resulted in 2.82 mol acetate/mol glucose and 190 mM acetate at a production rate of 17.1 mM/1 h. When the dilution rate was increased the production rate reached a maximal value of 43.2 mM/1 h at D=0.32 h-1. At a glucose concentration of 195 mM the dependence of yield upon dilution rate followed a similar pattern and an acetate concentration of 420 mM could be obtained. Enzymatic studies indicate that in A. kivui pyruvate ferredoxin-oxidoreductase and acetate kinase are inhibited at acetate concentrations higher than 800 mM. Based on these results a fed-batch fermentation was developed, which allowed to produce more than 700 mM acetic acid within 40–50 h.Dedicated to Prof. Dr. H. J. Rehm on the occasion of his 60th birthday  相似文献

Acetobacter spp. are used for industrial vinegar production because of their high ability to oxidize ethanol to acetic acid and high resistance to acetic acid. Two-dimensional gel electrophoretic analysis of a soluble fraction of Acetobacter aceti revealed the presence of several proteins whose production was enhanced, to various extents, in response to acetic acid in the medium. A protein with an apparent molecular mass of 100 kDa was significantly enhanced in amount by acetic acid and identified to be aconitase by NH2-terminal amino acid sequencing and subsequent gene cloning. Amplification of the aconitase gene by use of a multicopy plasmid in A. aceti enhanced the enzymatic activity and acetic acid resistance. These results showed that aconitase is concerned with acetic acid resistance. Enhancement of the aconitase activity turned out to be practically useful for acetic acid fermentation, because the A. aceti transformant harboring multiple copies of the aconitase gene produced a higher concentration of acetic acid with a reduced growth lag-time.  相似文献

The inhibitory effects of furfural and acetic acid on the fermentation of xylose and glucose to ethanol in YEPDX medium by a recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain (LNH‐ST 424A) were investigated. Initial furfural concentrations below 5 g/L caused negligible inhibition to glucose and xylose consumption rates in batch fermentations with high inoculum (4.5–6.0 g/L). At higher initial furfural concentrations (10–15 g/L) the inhibition became significant with xylose consumption rates especially affected. Interactive inhibition between acetic acid and pH were observed and quantified, and the results suggested the importance of conditioning the pH of hydrolysates for optimal fermentation performance. Poplar biomass pretreated by various CAFI processes (dilute acid, AFEX, ARP, SO2‐catalyzed steam explosion, and controlled‐pH) under respective optimal conditions was enzymatically hydrolyzed, and the mixed sugar streams in the hydrolysates were fermented. The 5‐hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) and furfural concentrations were low in all hydrolysates and did not pose negative effects on fermentation. Maximum ethanol productivity showed that 0–6.2 g/L initial acetic acid does not substantially affect the ethanol fermentation with proper pH adjustment, confirming the results from rich media fermentations with reagent grade sugars. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

A new mesophilic anaerobic cellulolytic bacterium, CM126, was isolated from an anaerobic sewage sludge digester. The organism was non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, Gram-negative and motile with peritrichous flagella. It fermented microcrystalline Avicel cellulose, xylan, Solka floc cellulose, filter paper, L-arabinose, D-xylose, beta-methyl xyloside, D-glucose, cellobiose and xylitol and produced indole. The % G + C content was 36. Acetic acid, ethanol, lactic acid, pyruvic acid, carbon dioxide and hydrogen were produced as metabolic products. This strain could grow at 20-44.5 degrees C and at pH values 5.2-7.4 with optimal growth at 37-41.5 degrees C and pH 7. Both endoglucanase and xylanase were detected in the supernatant fluid of a culture grown on medium containing Avicel cellulose and cellobiose. Exoglucanase could not be found in either supernatant fluid or the cell lysate. When cellulose and cellobiose fermentation were compared, the enzyme production rate in cellobiose fermentation was higher than in cellulose fermentation. The optimum pH for both enzyme activities was 5.0, the optimum temperature was 40 degrees C for the endoglucanase and 50 degrees C for the xylanase. Both enzyme activities were inhibited at 70 degrees C Co-culture of this organism with a Methanosarcina sp. (A145) had no effect on cellulose degradation and both endoglucanase and xylanase were stable in the co-culture.  相似文献

Candida utilis cultivated under batch conditions in a synthetic medium with a mixture of different carbon sources utilized first D-glucose and then D-galactose, D-mannose, D-xylose, L-arabinose, ethanol and acetic acid. The effect of acetic acid was primarily a function of pH and the physiological state of the inoculum. At pH 4.5, acetic acid at a concentration of 1 g/l increased the specific growth rate, reduced time of cultivation and increased yield of the yeast dry weight. The yield from acetic acid was 61%. In the presence of a higher content of acetic acid (3--6 g/l) the yield was only 18--26%. The yield calculated only from monosaccharides increased but the yield with respect to total carbon sources was lower. The specific growth rate decreased as well. The addition of ethanol also resulted in an increase of the production and yield of the yeast dry weight but the cultivation time was prolonged. The simultaneous utilization of carbon sources of the studied mixture modelling a sulphite fermentation medium with ethanol is advantageous. However, due to physiology of the yeast, it is most suitable to cultivate a strain adapted to utilizable carbon sources in a continuous way, in the presence of their limiting concentrations in the cultivation medium.  相似文献

Acetic acid tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is crucial for the production of bioethanol and other bulk chemicals from lignocellulosic plant-biomass hydrolysates, especially at a low pH. This study explores two evolutionary engineering strategies for the improvement of acetic acid tolerance of the xylose-fermenting S. cerevisiae RWB218, whose anaerobic growth on xylose at pH 4 is inhibited at acetic acid concentrations >1 g L(-1) : (1) sequential anaerobic, batch cultivation (pH 4) at increasing acetic acid concentrations and (2) prolonged anaerobic continuous cultivation without pH control, in which acidification by ammonium assimilation generates selective pressure for acetic acid tolerance. After c. 400 generations, the sequential-batch and continuous selection cultures grew on xylose at pH≤4 with 6 and 5 g L(-1) acetic acid, respectively. In the continuous cultures, the specific xylose-consumption rate had increased by 75% to 1.7 g xylose g(-1) biomass h(-1) . After storage of samples from both selection experiments at -80 °C and cultivation without acetic acid, they failed to grow on xylose at pH 4 in the presence of 5 g L(-1) acetic acid. Characterization in chemostat cultures with linear acetic acid gradients demonstrated an acetate-inducible acetic acid tolerance in samples from the continuous selection protocol.  相似文献
